Update . . . for those of you who remember my post last week . . .

[Bullwinkle925]

I wasn't KILLED after all. After breaking the news to hubby that I purchased a 2007 Prius - fully loaded - and some agonizing moments afterwards (poor guy) - when I picked him up from the hospital yesterday he said
"I was kind of hoping you got the blue one"...........:rofl: PHEW!


This is my new baby . . . Meet Prudence!

He loves it......the mileage is great!

10. nice

We got our 2007 Prius in March. Very happy with it. Ours is loaded too. I named him Zippy.

[Bullwinkle925]

11. Good - so I'm not . . .

the only one who has to name their car(s)?

Since they join the family - I think it's only proper that they have a name and their own identity.

I'm sure you are liking yours. I have yet to sit down and read the manual to figure everything out. Hopefully I'll get some time tomorrow to do so.

I've already stuck an anti-oil sticker on her bumper.

:hippie:

13. No you are not the only one

except my cars have always been male, lol.

I have a DU bumper sticker on mine :)

[Bullwinkle925]

15. I also have a silver '98 beetle . . .

named Dougie. or - 'Doug the Bug'. He's pouting now that he's been relegated to the driveway while Prudence has taken over his space in the garage. Oh well - he'll get over it. He sports a DU sticker as well as a 'City Lights Bookstore' sticker.

16. I stole it from a Beatles song :-P

They are sweet cars though. I haven't gotten to drive one but I've ridden in a friend's on several occasions.
